Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

1st appointment
I had my first appointment with Dr. M. He was very knowledgable and answered all of my question. Afterwards, he walked me to another department to schedule an alternative procedure. I highly recommend Dr. M for any colorectal issues.

Very painful examination. I had no insurance and didn't want to have an anoscopy done, but Dr Mellgren assured me they don't bill for it. Guess what, in a month I receive a $500 bill for anoscopy. Also, did not return my phone call as promised. Staff is awful as well - they were supposed to get my medical history from my last doctor, and they haven't even requested it
